"to be in jam", would you say 'li se nan problem."

Wi, ou kapab itilize mo ...pwoblèm, men gen plizyè lòt fraz ki ka di sa pi byen:

I'm in a jam.
Mwen pran nan twa wa.
Mwen pran nan mera.
Men m pran nan moulen.
De pye m nan yon grenn soulye.
M'antrave
M chire
M bannann
Mwen nan yon move enpas

    I like the last two the best.
    M bannann.
    Mwen nan yon move enpas.
    Sounds like "I'm going bananas" & "I'm at a bad impass"

      Yes, the second one is a great literal translation.
      That's what it means in English exactly :)
